Photographer's Note

Discovering the Modern Art museum - painting, sculpture, glass art-, I was attracted by this painting (big ben) of André Derain, painted in 1906. Beginning of the fauvism period. A classroom of young students were also discovering it, with someone asking them some questions so they learned a lot about art.

You've come through again with an imaginative and eye catching composition. The silhouettes of the young viewers of the painting is flawlessly captured. I just hung this picture of a picture in the group theme Pictures at an Exhibition. Have a good Sunday.

Hello Claude - The red wall and silhouetted figures pull one's eyes to this shot. I feel very much a bystander looking over the students' shoulders and enjoying the painting. I love the boldness of this shot, both the vibrant colours and the strong contrasting FG. Warm regards rosemary

Beautiful contrast here between the bright red wall and colorful painting, and the collection of silhouettes at bottom. Wonderful dramatic lighting makes this come alive for me. Glad the students were engaged - I've never heard of this artist, but to my untrained eye it has shades of Van Gogh. Thanks!

Hi Claude
Another of your recognised trademark, Super eye catching vibrant shot in spectacular details, neat and sharp rendering an artistique effect. The picture pleases me for its authenticity with those vivid colors are absolutely stunning. Thanks to your keen eye so well taken to perfection. Congrats,
